Zac Smith Twitter rant

Didn't the dude admit to choking his wife in a text message?

He is a scumbag. So is anyone that defends him at this point.

He definitely has anger issues and he beats his wife, there is no “allegedly” about it...I’m so sick of the “he wasn’t charged” or “wasn’t convicted” excuse that is working it’s way into athletics

Are you daft? 

There's ample evidence he harmed his wife physically. There are photos and he admitted it via text message. There is ample evidence that he is an alcoholic with rage issues, as Shelley Meyer texted Urban. He was arrested for DUI. He slept with an Ohio State staffer and cheated on his wife. 

All of the above are ways in which he harmed his own life and his children's lives. 

Instead of owning that, this fuckwhistle "coach" blames the media for his downfall. He posts pictures of his children as an emotional shield for his own culpability. He lists "the Ohio State staff and Buckeye players" as the real victims of this story, rather than the wife, who he admitted to choking in text messages. He's going at Brenda Tracy, a gang rape survivor, and advocate for sexual and domestic abuse victims. 

This is the mother of all unhinged rants. 

Speaking as one of the most conservative people on the board, when I see posts like this I have a hard time not thinking that your entire persona is just a sham established specifically to discredit people who aren't in line with the general A2 political consensus.

It's a rant and it's unhinged. Whether he is right or not (ha!) is irrelevant here. That twitter feed is the feed of someone with no control over himself, the feed of someone who goes to rehab for four days and flees, the feed of someone who orders $2000 worth of "stuff" to the office and carries on affairs with staffers.

It's the type of feed I would expect from someone who loses control of their impulses and abuses their wife. And if he's innocent (again: ha!) he's still being a gigantic fool. He's complaining that this is hurting his family by... hurting his family. There's a good chance he's intoxicated right now. 

If he has people saying things like your statement here enabling him, he is only going to be worse off, regardless of his guilt or innocence.  

Tweeting pictures of your kids saying, effectively, "Here are the real victims you scumbag media" is a pretty low and troubling move.

Also, for a guy who sucked at coaching yet trolled other teams/coaches/fanbases at every opportunity, I don't want to hear shit about him being mad at opposing fans.

shocked that section1 is trying to show us how reasonable and mature he is while the rest of us can’t control our emotions or put our biases aside. 

your schtick is getting tired. do us a favor and go away

You trolling hard, “WE?”

How about you post this over at 11W as M-Man.8 and get yourself some helmet stickers.

You sound a lot like an OSU fan.  No one else would make such an illogical defense of that POS.  

Down in front, yea you, with the terrible comment!

HIs anger is misplaced. He deserves no outside sympathy. He brought this on himself with his immature and unprofessional behavior on the job.

The fact that his ex-wife has responded the way she has is a function of their toxic relationship and the way it carried over to his job and impacted others. Don't blame the world for how it perceives you when you've played into the very stereotype of your low-life situation and acted the way you did on the job.

There is no hero or sympathetic figure here. You wrote your own story, we view it through our own life experience, understanding and personal lens. You use your children as a crutch for claiming the world doesn't see you the way you want to be seen as some caring dad who worked long hours as a football coach.

You got paid very well for the privilege of representing a highly successful football program and you embarrassed its reputation with your behavior.

Urban Meyer enabled this guy because he was his mentor's grandkid.

That's the story he tells. No one argues with it. It's not that he  hired this guy because he was so good at relating with super young athletes and turning them into productive college players and more importantly, great people, once they left school.

There are no tales attached to this soap opera that make that case outside of his mother's commentary. Why is that? Why isn't Zach Smith given some good word from someone, anyone other than his mother? Why hasn't anyone stepped up to say this guy beyond everything that's been reported, really is a special guy? Maybe because you gave no one outside your family reason to make that case for you.

No, he has dragged his family into this, to claim they have been damaged by this public relations fiasco. Well sir, you are responsible for that. And the fact that you keep blaming your former wife for all your issues makes you what? Certainly not a man in any sense of the word. 

Whether you beat your wife or not, the allegations of that led to every other disclosure about yourself and how that reflects on your head coach and the pretzel logic that was used to keep him in that job without further punishment. 

You seem to conflate criminal liability with civil responsibility.

I would be shocked if a judge in Ohio was anything but an OSU fanboy and made Zack Smith's issues go away from a criminal standpoint.

This in no way would show he's innocent or Courtney Smith's accusations were without merit.

Ha ha.  Wrong.  Your posts make me laugh.  They say that is healthy.

Ah the lord of mgoblog returns. Ladies and gentlemen, I present the self proclaimed most intelligent commenter on mgoblog, here making his mom and Dad so proud: SECTION 1.8!!
